Gordan Lederer Croatian cameraman and reporter killed during Serbian aggression on Croatia in 1991
was treacherrously murdered on 9th August 1991, by a mercenary gang of Chetniks while holding a camera in his hand, and that, thanks to the Chetnik collaborator, General Raseta, he was denied any chance of survival.
His premature death prevented him from the realization of two important projects that he had dreamt of:
to study the life and customs of Albanian people in the Kosovo region, which he had visited for several times with his colleagues from Zagreb;
to describe hundreds of Croatian Middle Age churches using his camera (Gordan studied archaeology at the Faculty of Philosophy in Zagreb).
